[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I actually have attended and checked out all three schools (4th grader at Brent) to prep on what we are doing. My hope was that EH/Jefferson could be an option. Sadly, after visiting Deal they aren't. Have you been to Deal? In my opinion EH and Jefferson are completely unprepared to implement a MYP anytime soon. I felt that they didn't take the IB program seriously. The EH IB coordinator was unable to answer simple questions posed by another parent which worried me. I won't even get into Jefferson and their issues. I don't know how long the process takes to become IB but it was clear that they are probably 5 years away with very little support from teachers which is my biggest concern. While we will never get into Deal it at least made me realize that EH and Jefferson aren't options either. [/quote] Honestly, IMO you should look at BASIS DC for next year. They still have openings for 5th grade next year. You can tour the school and have your child shadow for a day. I would at least check it out now since it is much harder to get into BASIS for 6th grade. If you end up liking it, then your child would be set till 12th grade as well.[/quote]
